Rob 'Atch keeps mentioning something about what happened at JV in the past 24 hours. Anyone got the faintest what he's on about?

OK, count me in. PM incoming.

Campagnolo Chorus headset 10sp era - £25

1" threaded?

Yeah, that was some competition.

I've got a Reynolds 1" threaded fork in black going spare. Think the steerer's about that length (would have to check). If you're interested, I'll dig it out and measure it/take pix.

Excellent work. * doffs cap*

The moral victory is ours...

Our inability to knock over the tail has made a huge difference this series and is threatening to take the moral victory away from England.

The moral victory is still on...

Hehehe

Aussies still massive favourites and the runs are coming pretty quickly.

I think England had a good chance of winning today also if the rain had held off

If they'd got Smith, I'd have agreed with this. But the Aussies were definitely in the stronger position going in to lunch and our bowlers were knackered.

Sounds like they might get out there again and potentially get three hours' play in at The Oval. Which puts it on a knife edge, though I'd still have Australia as favourites.

Bazball with a bit of thought could be extremely dangerous. It's definitely made this series closer than it might have been without.

Was at Lord's, wasn't it?

Difference for me was England got over-excited in the first two tests and let that affect their decision making. Carried on with Bazball after that but in a much more measured way - aggressive but not stupid.

Shame about Old Trafford - we had that won without the weather.

At least that kinda takes the Aussie win out of the equation.

Agree. And I'm a huge fan of Anderson, but he's just not had it at all this series.

Anderson's almost a liability at the moment. Got to be his last test, surely?

Got mine too - arrived yesterday after ordering on Tuesday.

Looking that way. I've switched off in the hope that brings about at least one wicket.

Ball's doing nothing, pitch flat and offering very little in the way of turn, bowlers knackered and batsmen playing well.

Worryingly, it looks like Wood is carrying an injury. That or Stokes completely forgot he was playing. Root looking the most likely of the England bowlers to take a wicket.

Not looking good, though, is it?

I reckon Australia are favourites...

Six and out. Bit pointless, but it'll have annoyed the Aussies, so that's something.

In which case, they should have declared with half an hour to close of play. The boring bastards.

That's a shame. Thought he had another year left in him at least.

England have given the Aussies an unlikely yet definite sniff here with that lazy lower order display. Although they've shown no evidence they're up to the challenge, Australia do have the players to win from here and, really, they should have been batted out of the game.
